Keeping virus protection current

WHY? Norton AntiVirus relies on up-to-date information to detect and eliminate viruses. One of the most common reasons you may have a virus problem is that you have not updated your protection files since you purchased the product.

Symantec provides online access to these new files, called virus definitions files, at no charge every month. You need to update your virus definitions files monthly.

■From Windows, use a modem or Internet connection to let LiveUpdate automatically download and install updated files.

■Get updates by mail. This service requires a fee. For more information, see Symantec Service and Support Solutions at the end of this manual.
